The odd thing is, if you've got an employee who knows what they are doing, is good at their work, makes themselves available inside certain time parameters, & won't moan if they don't get 6 shifts a week because they don't need to be a server to pay the rent, surely they are an ideal flexible employee? Were they paying him because they wanted to do control freak shit, or because they found it useful to have him around as a server 2 or 3 days a week? What do they gain by forcing him out?

Control is more important than productivity for some. That and/or jealousy that some others can make a living doing what they enjoy. Normally 3 strikes but this is special... A clear bias against the type of business conducted apart from the other job.

Your channel is the reason I got my motorcycle license and started riding, and got my first Honda rebel to start me off. I am grateful to you for giving me a outlet I never knew I needed I’m so happy that you are going full time and I hope it all works out for you.

I've been wanting to get into motorcycling for a bit and found your channel awhile ago because I was looking into the Rebel 300 vs. 500. Take the leap of faith and make the most out of this situation. We're here behind you all the way.

Hey man, just a note from England wishing you the best of luck going forward. That’s the important point for me ‘going forward’. I’d say drop the hassle and focus on what you want to do. I’ve seen, lots of times, that people may change a job or loose one and that’s where they’re given chance to succeed and do ‘more’. Hope all is good

Good on you man, a lot of big youtubers go through the same thing where they realized that if they quit their job and dedicated more tkme towards their channel they could grow far faster and produce more quality content. Congrats man, its gonna pay off.

Glad to hear you took the leap. I gotchu tuned in fam let's go 🚀🚀🚀💯✊

I feel this dude. I started an esports organization. It was wild. I was working my normal job (Sys Ad), and then this job when i was off. Scrim scheduling, weekly meetings with coaches, player meetings, practice's, organizing events, organizing matches, social media, everything. I was working 18 hour days (4am-10pm) for a year. I eventually had to give it up because yeah, folks didn't quite understand just how much goes into the back end and unless you can have the support staff behind you to do it, it all falls onto you. Good luck to you dude, and thanks for the great content.

Good luck man, I haven't watched you for very long but I'm happy to stay for the long haul

Sometime we just need a sign, an omen, consider it a catalyst for what's coming to you. Brother, I assure you that it is their loss, besides, you can a job at any time you decide you need one, at thousand of restaurants who would die to have someone of your caliber helping them out, you were a manager, you know how hard it is to find talent! In all honesty, I feel sorry for them.... They don't know how to retain talent... Trust the journey brother, great things are coming your way, we all know it! Much love Mike!

I just started riding and you have been my favorite yt to watch especially since I bought my first bike. A Honda rebel 1100 dct. Your down to earth. And easily distracted. Love everything about your videos. I turned on alerts now to make sure you get those likes and view. You go Burch

As a former chef in the industry for over 10 years, I’m sorry about your experience. Managers need to understand that this isn’t a career for most people. You’ll do great doing content full time! Keep going!

There’s a reason this popped into my recommended videos. Best of luck brother and I see you got MD tags if you ever want to ride let me know.

I'm along for the ride now! You have a great perspective and a wonderful way of keeping my attention lol

The best adventures are never expected! Can’t wait to see all the places this one takes you🧡

Yo, my dude. Never seen your channel before, and the algorithm got me here. I sat and watched this whole video, and I might not fully agree with your side of events, I give you mad props to the dedication of your fanbase. There's so many vloggers that put out their own schedule and don't adhere to it to the ire of their fans. You know what you need to do and are getting it done with full dedication. That's good shit, brother. You're also a pretty good storyteller that kept me captivated through your whole kind of mundane tale, lol. I wish you the best, and hope you shoot for the stars and become a top creator. Real bikers don't serve the Man!

Had the girlfriend and son subscribe and like the video good luck, love the vids man

When I was looking up on KZread for my first bike and what to get / reviews / how to ride, you quickly became one of my favorite channels. I too have just been let go out of an internship when I thought got sure I had the job lined up. As you said it, it’s nerve wrecking as well as exciting all the same.

Have a similar situation, quitting my current dead-end job that never has raises for one that pays a bit less but should pay better than I get now by next year. Lots of doubt whether it's the right thing, but have to keep pushing forward and tighten the ol' financial belt for a bit to get through the transition.

You got it man - this channel is great for rides/talks. Gas Prices, Nina in thumbnails, & taco mentions in the titles - you'll be pulling 110k views every sunday!! Wishing you luck, although it seems like your hard work will be the reason for success!

Best of luck man! I have a feeling you will more than make up for the temporary loss of monitary income. I wish I knew more about how to get into youtube as a job, or even had a computer to be able to edit vids.. Personally I think you are really lucky to be able to do what you do. You got this! 👍 👍

I've had a job at Home Depot where I requested 1 weekend off of each month to go see my gf and they had a problem with that so I quit. Fuck businesses. Do you bro. You obviously have the drive for success on youtube and that's what's gonna help you

You got this Burch, nothing but respect! You will continue to do great things with your channel!

This is the first time I’ve watched one of your videos. I subscribed. We’ll see how it goes. I have high hopes. Good luck!

Leadership that isn't willing to budge on things this dumb sounds like bad management. I could understand if you were trying to fully dip out of your cleaning completely but you even tried to rearrange that so it just sounds like it's being unreasonable. Honestly, F-you sounds about right in this situation. You give some people a crumb of power and they try to push it so far. Probably the best thing for you as riding season picks up so keep your head up.

Definitely sounds like a typical management screw up, but it seems like the server position was the second job & not the other way around. Good luck & keep the rubber on the road. 🐶🏍️✌️

Love this channel…I don’t have a bike yet you’re videos give motivation to get one.. love the motorcycle community..

Chase your dreams Burch! Good Luck!

Classic “Lead by fear” tactics that probably worked great during the Great Depression but now a days people just switch jobs or do something else like this guy is doing. Good for you man. I’m subscribing, just got into motorcycles last year so I’m excited to look through your content 👍

Hey brotha, excited to see what this year has in store for you and it sounds like your mindset with KZread is in the right place. You'll get it done at the end of the day and if not try tomorrow. I went through a similar situation at my last job about a week ago, and I also decided that if they were not going to get rid of me I was going to leave myself. I found a better job with more opportunities before I left there and I actually start in two days. So I like to think that everything happens for a reason, and you going full time on youtube is one of them.

I'd be surprised if you actually are fired over this. Most places are hurting for staff it's definitely an employee's market.
